Welcome to Sewn to Restore! This is the ministry branch of Elegantees where we can prepare and place trafficking survivors into dignified jobs in order to break the cycle of poverty. The practical ways that we seek to accomplish this include:
- Raise awareness of human trafficking. Our primary awareness focus is labor trafficking within the fashion industry.
- Aid women survivors who have been affected directly, or are at risk, of human trafficking. They are considered ‘clients’ in our program.
- Build and manage a life skills center, called the Restore Room. Our clients will be provided with life, educational, and vocational training in trade skills such as sewing garments. Clients will complete our program in 9-12 months at no cost to them. Any job offers we present will be with employers who offer fair wages and fair working hours. Elegantees will be a primary employer.
Our long term vision is to plant Restore Rooms around the world in countries where labor trafficking is prominent. We are so excited that the next step in this dream is coming!
Ready to help? Here are some ways you can contribute to this mission and ministry:
- Learn more about human trafficking, and help share with others.
- Use your purchasing power to make a difference. Every purchase is an opportunity to support businesses that value human dignity and fair treatment of workers.
- Pray for the women in Nepal and the work we are doing there.
- Donate to the practical needs of this ministry. Donate here!
We are excited to have you here, and we hope that you will join us in the fight against human trafficking.
